Hi, I’m Tamara Falvai, L.Ac

I am a licensed acupuncturist who has been treating patients for the last 17 years in San Francisco and Malibu areas. I specialize in managing your pain and healing from injury. I also specialize in helping woman who are pregnant or peri/post menopausal. I myself am 47 and have noticed that many woman in my community who are in these phases of their life don’t have the education and support they deserve. As a result I have developed treatment protocols and lifestyle programs to support these woman.

I received my masters from the American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in San Francisco and my Bachelors from the University of Colorado. Since then I have studied extensively with the AcuSport Education Center learning orthopedic acupuncture methods as well as focusing my learning on how to support woman in peri/post menopause. Currently I am also studying to earn my health coaching credentials in integrative nutrition.

I run a weekly community acupuncture hour in Malibu where I live with my husband, three kids, and too many animals to keep track of.

My Approach

My method is to find the root cause of what is preventing you to be the best version of yourself. For example, if you are in pain, that could be finding the postural disparity that is contributing to your acute or chronic issue. I offer integrative wellness solutions so you can have sustainable health.

For my woman out there who are stepping into a new chapter of life…

Menopause is a physiological event, it is not a disease. There is no reason a woman should have discomfort. Studies have shown that associated symptoms can be managed wit acupuncture, herbs, and lifestyle changes. This of course will also lead to an improved overall quality of life.

Sustainable Health

Health is multidimensional and a journey of taking the actions needed in the food you eat and bring balance to the body from a Chinese Medicine point of view. Health is also aligning your spirituality, creativity, finances, career, education, health, physical activity, home cooking, home environment, relationships, and social life.
